Cross-verification is very important so that no part of the executive branch of government becomes too powerful but at the same time becomes sufficiently powerful to fulfil its responsibilities.

Cross-verification is also imperative to prevent polarization. No executive branch institution of this democratic republic should become too population-based or too area-based. This measure should be implemented for executive officeholders only though. Legislative officeholders instead have to be Closer To The People in order to make laws general consistent with their specific views and needs. Cross-verification defeats that purpose. Parallel-verification is what should be utilized at the legislative level.

The foregoing is why all Presidential electors should be chosen by electoral votes in a federal congressional district. It must be noted the President of the United States serves all Americans as administrator of their federal executive agencies and as commander-in-chief of their armed forces. Since Presidential functions are based on area-based model, the manner his/her electors are chosen should be based on an population-based model.

The manner Presidential electors are chosen should be based on an population-based model.

In this population-based model, each locality (city or county) in a federal congressional district is assigned electoral votes based on its population. If a locality is split into two congressional districts, the locality which has the majority of its population in a specific congressional district will have two-thirds of its electoral votes allocated for that specific federal congressional district.

The remaining electoral votes belonging to that locality will be allocated for the federal congressional district which has the minority of that locality's population.
